Post by: Bondo on August 07, 2002, 07:01:57 pm Admins please delete SK's double post...he has his fourth star anyway...and feel free to delete this post as well...like I care about one itty bitty post ;)
Speaking of which, all of the mods need to team up when SK nears 500...maybe set him back to 400 a few times ;). hehe ;) Title: Re: 1000 PINGS! Post by: KoS PY.nq.ict on August 07, 2002, 07:33:24 pm NH...it's your connection to the internet....sometimes it depends on the computer but its mostly your service....Sounds like the service blows.

Title: Re: 1000 PINGS! Post by: Jeb on August 08, 2002, 02:04:19 am i had that problem right around when the 1v1 tourney was happening with my pings...
usualy its the service, they might be fixing things or something. basicaly wait it out, it should get better, if it doesn't call your isp and wait on hold for a couple hours. Title: Re: 1000 PINGS! Post by: Typhy on August 08, 2002, 02:26:24 am It's a simple problem with your connection, first off, perhaps another user within your house was using it to download somthing, that will greatly slow things, when my brother is downloading things, or even worse, uploading, I used to get 2,000+ Pings. If the problem continues, then it's your ISP, and Jeb is right, you either have to wait it out, or wait on hold.

Title: Re: 1000 PINGS! Post by: Jeb on August 08, 2002, 04:10:59 am i share my dsl line with my parent's computer, usualy its ok when they are surfing the web or checking the email, but every tuesdaynight when Software update comes on at 1am... my pings go to shit.
it could be a prob with latency... but remember latency and bandwith are 2 different things. even if you Dl at 70k a sec you could get terrible pings Title: Re: 1000 PINGS! Post by: electronicjo on August 08, 2002, 04:17:29 am I have AT&T as my ISP, and I rarely get crappy pings. I usually reset my modem, when the pings are BS. If that doesn't work, a good DHCP renew sometimes does the job.
Title: Re: 1000 PINGS! Post by: Cow on August 08, 2002, 10:07:42 am i have AT&T cable it ownz. I get great pings from east to west cost.
Title: Re: 1000 PINGS! Post by: Typhy on August 08, 2002, 01:08:11 pm Same here Jeb, as soon as my parents or my brother do downloads, my ping go way up, usualy from around 400 average, to 2000
Title: Re: 1000 PINGS! Post by: ?(uNt?YodaTi.Hfa on August 08, 2002, 02:14:08 pm Lol, since my host is the topic of this, I'd like to say i was hosting a 16 player game with half the peole from Europe when im in Texas. When the lag got bad i asked the europeans to leave, then more americans came and it didn't lag anymore. My host isnt bad, except when i get 8 europeans on 56ks. I never have bad ping during the night though 69 and such, But the airport i have splits the conection in 4 ways. I don't know if this is the problem or not (why you get bad pings from my game.)
Title: Re: 1000 PINGS! Post by: Night Hawk on August 08, 2002, 10:14:52 pm They are gettign better, much better, yet............i till cant host, its odd that i couldnt host and i had bad pings at the same time, so i thought it had somehting to do with the bad pings, i just won my self a absketball game, 19 points WOOT!
Title: Re: 1000 PINGS! Post by: Night Hawk on August 09, 2002, 08:06:12 am LOL, why silent killer, has rapid been bad?
Title: SK the Forum n00b constantly being 0wn3d by ALL! Post by: AK_Rap1d on August 09, 2002, 03:42:26 pm Easy NH. ?I 0wn him so much in the forum arguements, that he's seeing if his *DAMN membership can give him any power to tell administrators to fuck with my account, since he's so frustrated on being 0wn3d by me. ?It's called "Last Resort" ;D P.S: Notice how he's been here this long, and still has no clue on who the GG moderators are(Since he's directing his questions to Bondo, the BL Moderator. LoL!) P.P.S: Also notice how worried he is about "Post Count". Trying to get some count anyway he can. Especially with 1 to 2 word posts! ;D |
